(THUMB EXTENDED TiS lOFF COACH THAT CURVE BALL 1S COMING r=, By AL DEMAREE (Former Pitcher, N. Y. Giants) Nine out of ten pitchers have some little mannerism that tips off to a smart coacher what kind of.ball is to be thrown. "Chief" Bender and Oscar Dugey of the champion Phil- lies of 1915 were two of the clever- est in the game at grabbing signs from the pitcher. They found out that dozens of major league pitchers were holding their balls as shown above, unconsciously advertising every ball they threw. By a pre-ar- ranged word-sign, any time Bender and Dugey shouted "make it good" to the hitter, he knew a curve ball was coming. If they told him to "crack it," he was set for a fast ball. -------- INDIA 1S TAXING STEPS FOR STRONG DAVIS TEAM. Lahore, British India, April 27.-- The All-India Tennis Association has cabled the manager of its Davis Cup team to instruct 8. M. Jacob and Dr. A. H. Fyzee, members of the team, now in England, to give the under- takings necessary to bring about re- storation of their playing status. The two stars were suspended from tournament play by the Brit- ish Lawn Tennis Association early this week following a controversy over the payment of expenses of a trip to Paris last year by a team of they were members.

London, Ont., April 27.--A. A. Langford, president of the Dominion Bowling Association, has received several communications from bowl- ers in Western Ontario who are in- terested in making the proposed visit to New Zealand. The Dominion President requests that the Secre- tarfes of the different associations se- cure the names of the bowlers in their districts who are interested in making the trip. These names will be forwarded to R. T. McLean, Hon. Secretary of the Dominion Lawn Bowling Association, Toronto. A meeting will be called and the response will depend on whether or not the invitation is accepted. Al- ready several bowlers have asked to be considered as members of the team. If the invitation is accepted the team will probably leave in the mid- dle of November, reaching Auckland early in December. If it is desired to visit Australia also the bowlers will return to Canada about the end of February. -------- ¥Safs Open Wednesday. The Toronto Leafs will likely ny come home for Wednesday's opener strictly in the contention for tha ~~ falon and the array of new talent that Howley has included in his up will make the advent of the locals an event of special interest. Such has been the infusion of new blood that every section of the team will have something new to offer. For the first time in some years the Leafs look to have a catcher who knows how to sock the sphere in proper style and the Detroit recruit is now easily leading the team in batting 'with the lusty average of 379 for nine games. Not only is Manion the batting hero, but he is also the slugging impressario with four doubles and a homer to his credit. - Second in the list of batting aver- ages and possibly not that far down in point of interest is Carlyle, the youngster who the critics claim may some day acceptably fill the role * ated by the one and only Tyrus. 46 young southermer boosted his average materially during the week, and is now hitting them at .326, and soon bids fair to be giving his fellow Detroiter a good run for the premier honors. fLlao- Fair in November last, where he was awarded first prize and the cham- pionship.
